Power supply supervisor

You may need a power supervisor, if you plan to place many chips with delicate power requirements (min-max distances between many power supply voltages and IO pin voltages to the same chip) on your board may need a supervisor chip.

Else you should follow the next instructions for simple power solutions:

Since the current documents do not mention Cyclone II chips yet, you should do some inprovization. Put some extra effort into the placement of power decoupling capacitors, Cyclone II chips seem to be much more sensitive for power stability than Cyclone chips.

We use a mix of a simple power supervisor chip TLC7701 from TI and switching power regulators from NS.
